at 7:23 why not play Na4?

Thank you! I will certainly look forward to them. I am coming back to the London after a good amount of time playing 1 e4. Two other things I would be interested in (off the top of my head): (1) Some of the games by your friend who plays the London at the 2400 level and (2) situations where, as in Kovacevic's book, it is better to go into 2 c4 or other mainline theory than to stay in the London formation

Chess - QK vs KP (7th rank) endgameby teoeo379 views
1.d4 d5 2.Bf4 c5 is an awfully aggressive move for Black, essentially a Queen's Gambit reversed... maybe White should be meeting this more energetically.
Consider 3.e4, the key idea being 3...dxe4 4.d5 and we have an Albin Counter Gambit reversed, and ...Bf5 is a dynamic approach for Black in that opening.
Eric Schiller in 'Unorthodox Chess Openings' poo-poos this line because of 3..dxe4 4.d5 Qb6, exploiting the weak b2 square. IMHO he is wrong: 6.Nc3! Qxb2 7.Nge2 is very reasonable, yes?

It is true one can reach an alpin a tempo up, and that this is a good surprise weapon, but objectively white is in fact worse. I actually looked into this stuff when I started playing the london and if you want I will post a line of it later, I will be gone for a week but when I come back I plan to post a few more videos on the london.

Great stuff. How about something on the early developments with ...d5, ...e6 and ...Bd6 or early ...Nh5, both trying to kill off the London bishop?

Ill make a few videos about e6 stuff, I am basically making videos in response to people so anything else you want to look at just tell me =)
